For every one of us, there was a trigger point that led to starting our own businesses. This is what tends to be known as our “why” – but it’s so easy to forget why you started and end up creating a business that doesn’t fulfill you or that you just don’t even really like any more!

We want you to feel ready to go into 2025 and make it your best year yet, so in this episode we’re recapping our “whys” and how you can get realigned with your business. We’re also giving you a (probably) much-needed reminder that your business is exactly that – yours, and you’re no one’s employee. So, when your client asks for 8 calls a day, you’re well within your rights to say “absolutely not!!”.

So, sit down with us and let’s get you back on the path to a business that you love!

In this episode, we’re chatting about:

  • Why we both started our businesses and how our “whys” have changed as we’ve changed
  • Things you can do as a freelancer but not as an employee (and a nudge to shake off that employee mindset!)
  • How you can get your business aligned with what you actually want from it
  • Sharing connection points about your “why” with your audience to attract clients
